+Samuel Thibault [*updated the Debian GNU/Hurd installer
+ISO*](http://lists.debian.org/debian-hurd/2010/12/msg00001.html), and also
+again did his regular batch of bug fixing.
+
+*Arch Hurd is back in action!*, too: they uploaded a [first version of a
+graphical live CD](http://www.archhurd.org/news/19/).
+
+Neal Walfield
+[reported](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/l4-hurd/2010-12/msg00001.html) on
+the state of his [[microkernel/Viengoos]] kernel / research project, which
+unfortunately is currently on hold, due to other commitments.
+
+Olaf Buddenhagen raised an interesting use case: you can use a [[*subhurd* for
+debugging the *main* Hurd system|hurd/subhurd#debugging_main_hurd_system]].
+That is [[hurd/virtualization]] at its best!
+
+Right before the end of the year, Diego Martin Nieto Cid sent a [patch series
+to fix some issues with `make
+dist`](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2010-12/msg00024.html).
